Pictionary Frame Game, from Mattel, takes the classic drawing game and gives it a breath of fresh air. Players have three ways to play: Mirror Mirror, Classic, and Action. My favorite, Mirror Mirror, requires the drawer to trace their clue onto one side of the transparent drawing frame while a member of their team uses the marker to follow their finger and create an image while trying to guess the clue. Playing Classic requires the drawer to roll the die, read their clue, and draw it for their teammates to guess—just like the classic version of the game. When a player plays an Action card, they muset draw part of their clue and then act out the whole thing. For example, if the drawer gets “take a picture,” they might draw a camera on the frame, and then act like they’re pressing the shutter button while peering through the viewfinder.

I love Pictionary, and this gives my friends and I even more ways to enjoy the game.
